Fellow Ralph Moody fans, you won't believe what we (actually my sleuthing husband) found! We just finished reading The Fields of Home, the 5th book in Moody's autobiographical series. At this point in Ralph's young teen-age years, he goes to spend some time with his abrasive maternal grandfather after getting kicked out of Medford, Massachusetts by the town sheriff. His grandfather lived just outside Lisbon Falls, Maine.

This book is full of trials of a different sort than what we've seen in the previous books. Here, Ralph's trials are primarily relational ones - trials with an old, stubborn, prideful relative. There are lots of golden nuggets within the pages.
